Although it’s a little time consuming for a weeknight meal (you have to roast the eggplant for 30min before preparing the rest of the dish), it’s delicious and a nice alternative to lasagna. On the other hand, I’d much rather wait for the eggplant to roast in the oven rather than stand at the stove and fry it and then clean up the mess!

Hey friends! How was your weekend? Busy and action packed or cool and totally chill? Mine was more of the latter which was fine by me!

Now if you’ve been a follower/friend of this blog for awhile, come around check out the changes I’ve made to the space. Still same address and content, but I’ve updated my blog’s look. I’ve gone ahead and changed the blog name to Peachy Plum: Adventures in Suburbia because now that I’m no longer avoiding pressing matters like school, wedding planning, and half marathon conquering, I am less likely to procrastinate on matters. But other than my facade, everything’s pretty much staying the same. Hope you like the new look.

Secondly, hopefully you noticed that today Jess and I are hosting a baking link-up called Now Bake This!

I used store-bought pizza dough because while I love to bake, my pizza dough making skills leave a lot to be desired. These bake up beautifully and pair well with a side of marinara, as suggested by Jenna.

Preheat your oven to 425’F. Wash and wring out the spinach leaves. Press out a clove of garlic. Heat up a skillet and hit it with some olive oil. Throw in the garlic and let that cook for a minute before adding the spinach. Once the spinach has wilted and shrank in volume, take it off the heat, and press out any excess moisture with a colander and spatula in the sink.
